    '16 Platinum - Sync works, but no manual radio or hvac controls

    Could be a bad HVAC module. If you have FORScan or any kind of code reader, pull the codes it is reporting.

    Loose connection to the front facing camera or a bad front camera.

    2026 Wiring Diagrams

    I have PTS access. What diagram(s) in particular do you need? You can buy PTS access for $27 for two days which isn't bad

    How to turn off alarm system on 2024 Expedition?

    I pulled the config from a random 2024 Expo, and it shows a 1 here. If you have FORScan, it seems like this can easily be disabled in the BCM. You can set it to a 3 to disable the inclination aspect of it, or set it to a 0 to turn it off completely. You can always just flip it back on if needed...

    How to stop data collection on the new Expeditions?

    The Comma AI device kicks Bluecruise's butt up and down the street. However, Ford added TRON encryption to the newer models, so it no longer works on most newer vehicles. In the case of the Expo, it can only be added to the 2022-2024 model years.

    How to stop data collection on the new Expeditions?

    Not sure what you mean about notifications, but from my understanding, this stops sending the driver data to the cloud but keeps the modem working for the Ford app to work, OTA updates, and other connected features to continue to function. If you want the vehicle to be completely excommunicado...

    How to stop data collection on the new Expeditions?

    In your touchscreen, go to settings, connectivity, connected vehicle features, and turn off all the data sharing options. I can't find any pics of an Expo screen on Google, but looks something like this.

    30 min idle FORScan

    According to the 2024 Expo spreadsheet, the 30 minute idle is set here in the PCM:

    Blue Cruise Eyes on Road Annoyance

    Yes, it can be completely disabled with FORScan if you want to get rid of the "keep eyes on the road" message and still be able to use lane centering. Many people have done it after BC expires if they don't plan on renewing the subscription.

    2024 Timberline Sync 4A Max Def Soft Button

    In that case, that button may be hard coded into the climate bar itself and cannot be removed. There are ways to add/remove the heated/cooled seats and heated steering wheel from the climate bar, but I don't see anything else related to the front defrost function in the APIM.

    2024 Timberline Sync 4A Max Def Soft Button

    Check what you have in this location and change it so that MD is disabled and everything else stays as it is. If you do not get the desired result, just change it back.

    Trying to make progress with Forscan. Comparing to a 25 F150.

    From what I have seen, if the vehicle is on Sync 4, the APIM config is pretty much the same across all Fords. Once you start getting into the BCM, IPMA and other modules, things can start to get very different across different vehicle platforms. Removing the black box works for every vehicle on...

    IPC Module is under APIM Module

    Correct.I am not sure what year this started on the Expos, but on the F150, the IPC started to get managed by the APIM in 2024 and newer models.

    Towing module software update

    Yea....sorry I didn't elaborate more on that. I've have everything for FDRS for years, so I tend to forget not everyone is familiar with it. Coincidentally, a Ford mobile tech was at my dealer today since we took a Navigator in on trade and it had a recall that needed to be done before we can...

    Towing module software update

    Unfortunately, there is no way to force an OTA trigger from the server. The only way to (safely) install module updates on demand is with FDRS.

    4th Gen brakes

    I did not. I was holding off due to the possibility of trading my truck in for a newer one, but now that I know the F150 will not be redesigned until 2028, I plan on going forward with it. I did call Baer and sourced out the rest of the parts I needed. I will come back here and lyk if I came...

    BLIS Calibration Reprogramming using OBD

    Yes, you can program the BLIS sensors with FORScan. You will need to pull the ab data file from the Motorcraft site to write your truck's VIN and config to the right and left side obstacle detection modules (SODR & SODL). You will then have to run the service procedure in FORScan to calibrate...

    22+ Expedition FORSCAN - Warning

    The beta version allows you to flash firmware. This is NOT to be used to update modules......FORScan themselves warns you against doing so. You cannot trust FORScan to pull all the files or even the correct files from Ford's servers. This should only be used if absulotely necessary and it is...

    Sync Update Issues

    I would not worry about it. I have taken apart the dash on my F150 and my girl's Bronco on multiple occassions and it's fine, and I'm not a technician. Glad to hear they figured it out, though.

    Sync Update Issues

    Oh yes......for sure. I have seen many cases were a module went bad and could not be updated via FDRS or the OTA process. This will cause a bottleneck effect since certain updates have to be installed in a certain order. This is true for APIM, GWM, TCU and (sometimes) IPC updates.

    Sync Update Issues

    I don't think it's the APIM. GWM maybe.....TCU probably. This is 100% a lack of connectivity issue. Notice the OTA triggers expire exactly 2 weeks after they are sent. That's because an OTA trigger (for non-inhibit updates like this one) is only valid on the server for two weeks for the vehicle...

    Sync Update Issues

    If you say the dealer tried to update the module and could not do it, chances are, you have a bad TCU.

    Sync Update Issues

    It is under the console. See attached. However, I am still confused as to why there are no codes. It is VERY rare for any of these newer vehicles to show no codes at all.....not even stored codes.
